I’m catching up with the band over Zoom, the day before their debut full-length, Past // Present // Future, is set to… Read more »
March is Women’s History Month, hot on the heels of Black History Month. It should go without saying how important it is to take the time to highlight the invaluable contributions women have made to society and culture.

Like I’ve done for the past few years, on December 31 I queued up a song on Spotify, ready to hit play as soon as midnight rolled around to make sure I started the year off with the right vibe. This year’s winner? The Maine with “Dirty, Pretty, Beautiful”, naturally. Obviously, you know I gotta rep my boys in The Maine always.
